Sacred Space
Sunday 6th April
7:00 pm
Sacred Space is a place to enjoy an evening of meditation, sung and chanted prayers, reflection and a space to be creative, inspired by the Taizé tradition.
There is no preaching, and the environment is relaxed and fluid. Attendees can sit on cushions and rugs on the floor or on chairs and pews and enjoy the various parts of the evening as they choose.
We will sing beautiful, meditative chants by candlelight, the soothing and connecting effects of this form of meditation are a powerful way of connecting with God. During the evening, there will also be art materials available for attendees who feel moved to enjoy creative and sensory expression.The gathering will last one hour, but you are welcome to stay in the church afterwards, to continue meditating or reflecting. Refreshments will be available afterwards, at the back of the church.
We hope you will join us for this beautiful evening of peace and reflection.Taizé originates in the Taizé Community, a monastic community in Burgundy, France, established by Brother Roger Schütz in 1940. The first Taizé house was a sanctuary to many refugees seeking safety from the Nazi occupation. The Taizé Community has grown to become one of the most important sites of Christian pilgrimage in Europe.
